Run this Script and install all things you need to run Dekaron or other games.

The Packed Updater dont work always I/O Error , he cant Read this archive typ "div", update the client and put after updateing the data.pak again on your linux and start the game ;-).

Umm, thanks, but won't installing windows libraries basically turn ubuntu into an ubuntu-windows hybrid? And then that means its running on a hybrid, not on ubuntu.

Wine is a Linux Program :P
And this Program opens execute files xD

Cedega would work out better for noobs, not much to it and just as reliable as wine if not better. It's a pay for program, but well you know how to find it.

ok
well im having problems with my dekaron launching.
idk what to do because when i installed dekaron-nemesis(not trying to advertise)
it is in a .rar file, and u just extract it and it is just a file.
idk what to do because it is not a installer or has a setup.
also , this script i used did not work--

echo "Installing .NET 1.1 , 2.0"
winetricks dotnet11 dotnet20 -- idk y but it keeps failing --
sleep 1

can anyone help me with this problem.

Tried to test it with Global Dekaron and 2 private servers and it doesn't work.
Before I followed this guide my game would update fine (on all 3 I tried) but when I clicked "Start" nothing happened in all 3 cases. Now that I followed this guide the launchers crash instantly when I open them.

I guess there isn't a guide to undo this script...?
